With the complexity of pediatric diseases, diagnosing them can be challenging. MMC provides doctors a "go-to-source" for consultation with medical experts when a doctor has a puzzling case. The doctor contacts MMC describing the case, forwards the patient's records and requests that MMC arrange a video consultation with a medical specialist. This process is encompassed in the term "telemedicine". In the last 15 years MMC has facilitated over 80,000 consults in 110 countries. Each consult not only offers a diagnosis it also transfers knowledge.
